Defogger Test

5. Reconnect the 13P connector to the mirror actuator, turn the ignition switch to ON (II) and the mirror defogger switch is ON.

6. Measure the voltage between terminals No. 8 and No. 9 of the 13P connector. There should be battery voltage. If there is no voltage, check for an open or high resistance in the wire. If voltage is as specified and the mirror fails to warm up, replace the mirror holder.
